Biodiversity in the territory of Ferrara
The province of Ferrara, with its plains, wetlands and nature reserves, represents an authentic treasure of biodiversity.
Our commitment to sustainability is not limited to the management of internal resources, we also work to raise awareness among our guests of the importance of biodiversity and how each of us can contribute to its protection.
Why is biodiversity important?
Biodiversity is the beating heart of life on Earth. Each species, large or small, contributes to maintaining the balance of ecosystems, guaranteeing the air we breathe, the water we drink and the foods we consume. Preserving biodiversity means safeguarding the quality of life for humans and the planet.
The Po Delta Park and the Comacchio Valleys
The Po Delta Park is one of the most important ecosystems in Europe, an area of extraordinary ecological richness that extends between the province of Ferrara and Veneto. This wetland is home to a myriad of migratory bird species, such as flamingos, herons and spoonbills, as well as numerous fish, reptiles and amphibians. It is one of the most important areas in Europe for birdwatching and the conservation of aquatic species. Protecting the Po Delta and its Comacchio Valleys means preserving one of the most delicate and precious natural environments of our country.
The Bosco della Mesola Natural Reserve: the kingdom of the Mesola deer
The Mesola Forest is one of the last lowland forests in northern Italy and represents a precious habitat for numerous species of flora and fauna. Among its most famous inhabitants is the Mesola deer, a unique subspecies of deer that lives exclusively in this protected area. Exploring the Mesola Forest means coming into contact with a corner of uncontaminated nature, where centuries-old plants and wild animals coexist in perfect balance.
The Volano Dunes: a coastal habitat to be protected
The Volano Dunes extend along the Ferrara coast, a protected natural area of great ecological importance. These sandy formations are home to hardy flora, such as sea lilies and beach weeds, and are a habitat for numerous migratory birds and rare insects. Coastal dunes also play a crucial role in protecting the coast from erosion and help maintain the balance of the marine ecosystem.
